Lichens are a
unique and fascinating combination of fungus and another organism that
goes through photosynthesis, called photobionts, usually algae or cyan
bacteria. These organisms work together to form what is known as a symbiotic
relationship, which is where both parties benefit from working
together. In this
case, the photobiotic produces sugars through photosynthesis, just like leaves
on trees, which provides the fungus with a food source, and the fungus produces
nutrients that benefit the photobiotic. Thanks to this relationship, lichen can
be found in a wide variety of habitats, including on the trunks of trees or
leaves in moist forests, on fallen logs, bare rocks, or on soil. Lichen also
thrives in some of the most extreme conditions, including hot, dry deserts and
the frigid cold Arctic tundra.Friday, September 26, 2014
Identify the smbyosis
Mutual ism - is a comparison of both organism that share beneficial organisms like the fungus on the log the lichens on the log gives energy to the fungus and the fungus give them space
Lichens - there a type of algae that grows on fences logs and trees

Identify the symbiosis
the log and the lichens have a mutualism symbiosis. lichens are made up of alga and fungus the lichens protect the log from other species it grows on the north side of the tree does not need sunlight or energy but they go though photosynthesis lichens take in cordon dioxide and produce sugar rich molecules.
Identify the Symbiosis
Lichens grows on trees. They grow on maple trees and many more trees. There is like all the trees in the world that Lichens grow on. A simple slow-growing plant that typically forms a low crust like, leaflike, or branching growth on rocks, walls, and trees. It is also a skin disease in which small pimples or bumps occur close together. Thanks for reading by Derrick Bronzynski.
Identify The Symbiosis
A lichen is a mutualistic relationship between algae and fungi. The lichens use sunlight energy, carbon dioxide, and water to make sugars and oxygen for the use of the fungi and algae. A weird fact is that if you were to send a lichen to Mars the lichen would thrive because of the high amount of carbon dioxide on mars.http://www.redcolony.com/art.php?id=0109020#Lichen
Identify The Symbiosis
Lichen is not made of moss. Lichens are a combination of fungi and algae. Lichens are a symbiosis between fungi and algae. Lichens are important for the terraformation. Lichens like all other plants. Lichens utilize the light energy in sunlight to turn carbon dioxide and water into sugars and oxygen. Lichens can survive very adverse conditions. The current mars can even support the hardiest of lichens. Oxygen is a colorless, orderless reactive gas. The oxygen chemical of atomic number 8 and the life-supporting component of the air. Oxygen forms about 20% of the earths atmosphere.

Lichen on the Log
Lichen is a organism the arises from green algae.It can survive in any climate and it can live anywhere like trees, soil, weedily debris, tree leaves desert sand, rusty metal, and animal bones. A simple slow growing plant that typically forms a low crust like, leaflike, or branching growth on rocks, walls, and trees. Oxygen is a colorless odor reactive gas. It forms about 20% of the earths atmosphere.
